N8 -text recognizer & business card reader

If I go to my pictures, hold select, choose 'send' I get the options 'to text recognizer'' and 'to business card reader'. When I choose any of these I get the 'feature not supported'. Is there any away to get thhese features working?

What software version are you running on your Nokia N8-00 ?
You can find out by choosing Call -> and typing *#0000#
As standard there should not be the Options -> send to 'business card reader', or 'to text recognizer''
It sounds like you have installed some third party software on your phone, that have OCR features, and that added these options to your Send menu, much like Pixelpipe does.
I would recommend that you check your installed programs and look for something called businesses card reader, or document scanner or similar. If you find out what third party software that gives you these options, its easier to help you.

Is there a digital business card reader that can feed iContacts?

Is there a digital business card reader that can load contact information into iContacts?
If yes, what is it? If no, is there a way to load contact information into Outlook for Mac and then export it to iContacts?

1, people tend to recommend powered readers, as obviously they have their own power source and won't rely on what they're connected to. I have an old Belkin (model F5U240) that still works, but I don't think that it's made anymore (it's a CF only reader)
2, we are just fellow users here, and none of us know what Canon might, or might not, be planning. On the basis that the power was reduced in iOS 4, my opinion is that it's doubtful (though I'm not always right ). You can try leaving feedback : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Nokia business card reader for N97

When will Nokia business card reader be available for Nokia N97.
Regards
Mikael

Hi Mikael
I have purchased the ABBY 2.0. When i downloaded it to N97 it said that the software is not compatiable with N97. I still went ahead with the same. It does recognise and sorts the business card but the camera is not initiated from the ABBY Application. I have to click a normal picture and then go to ABBYY and select the image and process.... Is it how it is supposed to work ?

Printing of a logo and text on business cards, paper, etc.

Dear reader(s),
Let me introduce myself; my name is Matthew Hennessy from the Netherlands and I mostly PhotoShop, Illustrate for a hobby (for the last 5 years).
In the past 5 years I have learned a lot when it comes to designing, but this isn't enough. A few weeks ago my boss asked me to design a new logo and new text, with the intention of using it on business cards, brief paper and envelopes.
Now here comes the part you have seen coming, I really need to know a few things about the printing process, and the settings necessary to make a 'print ready' file. I have already done some research, but still some things are very unclear to me. If any answers could be given to the following questions, that would be more than appreciated!
Questions:
1. Crop marks - I have seen a lot of tutorials on the internet where people refer to 'crop marks', why are these necessary? What are they? What are they used for? How can I set the preferences and how can I see if I use the 'crop marks' correctly?
2. Trim marks - I have seen a few people talking about this. Are 'trim marks' the same as 'crop marks'?
3. Bleeding - this is something I really try to figure out, and already did my best but I'm not getting any wiser! Example given of my problem:
I'm planning to (when this comes to an end), order business cards, brief paper and envelopes on Vistaprint (Dutch site). The preferred size is 1. 90mm x 52mm (complete document) or 2. 87mm x 49mm (cut off).
What is the difference between these two sizes? I suppose this has something to do with the bleeding, but what?
Now this is what confuses me, and I don't think I'm the only one:
3.1. I made a new document in Illustrator CS5, with the 'complete document' measurements 90mm x 52mm (300DPI, CMYK). Do I need to input bleeding before I push ok?
3.2. I made a new document in Illustrator CS5, with the 'cut off document' measurements 87mm x 49mm (300DPI, CMYK). Do I need to input bleeding before I push ok?
4. Is there a checklist or anything to do this perfectly? As you can imagine I don't want to mess this up.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, e-mail contact would be great too: [email protected]
Thank you for reading, I will be around to look for replies! Thanks again!
- Matthew

1. Crop marks - I have seen a lot of tutorials on the internet where people refer to 'crop marks', why are these necessary? What are they? What are they used for? How can I set the preferences and how can I see if I use the 'crop marks' correctly?
Forget so-called "Crop Marks." Crop Marks and Crop Region are Illustrator-specific terms. It's an Illustrator feature that creates a set of (grossly oversized) printable marks on the Artboard for the printing house to use as trim indicators and/or (depending on version) to define a region for output when you export the file in certain formats. Other programs in Illustrator's genre don't even have this feature because it's really not necessary. Historically, it was Illustrator's workaround for its lack of a proper bleed feature and single-page limitation. I never even use Illustrator's Crop Marks. If I want trim marks to print, I simply draw my own.
Trim marks is an industry term. Trim marks are short hairlines which align to the edges at which you want the paper to be trimmed after printing, but are placed outside the actual trim rectangular area so that they get trimmed away. In most projects destined for offset printing, it's a good practice to draw proper trim marks in the bleed area of the page. The print dialog also provides a Printer Marks feature that will cause trim marks (among other things) to print outside the Artboard. (You don't need to worry about that in this scenario.)
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
2. Trim marks - I have seen a few people talking about this. Are 'trim marks' the same as 'crop marks'?
So as explained above, Illustrator Crop Marks is an Illustrator feature commonly used to draw trim marks. I don't use that feature. It wastes space.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
3. Bleeding - this is something I really try to figure out, and already did my best but I'm not getting any wiser! Example given of my problem:
Bleed is an industry term that simply means you want ink to print "right to the edge of the paper." That's not actually possible on a commercial offset press. So if the design requires "right to the edge of the paper" printing, you cheat: You print on a larger-than-final-size sheet, put trim marks to indicate the final size of the piece, and design so that anything that is supposed to "print to the edge" actually extends beyond those trim marks. Theoretically, if the physical processes of commercial printing were perfect, you could draw your design "just to" the trim. But paper expands and shrinks with humidity changes, Press sheets jog around a bit as they get picked up by the suction lifts and grippers and shoved and squished between the rollers. (It's a mechanical miracle that the process works at all, and has for over a century. A full-size CMYK offset sheetfed press is a marvelous piece of engineering.) After printing and drying the sheet is trimmed at the trim marks, and the artwork that extends beyond the trim marks is chopped off.
Typically in commercial offset printing, 1/8 inch of "extra artwork" beyond the trim is sufficient to allow for the inaccuracies of the process.
Now here's the thing: If you are working in the traditonal manner with a commercial printing house, you know the press size and sheet size that will be used for the project. You can do all kinds of things at the design stage to minimize unnecessary work at the printing house by "designing for the press sheet." For example, in the press houses with which I work, I would never deliver a business card project output file as a single-card image on a single-card-sized page. No conventional offset printer is going print business cards one-card-at-a-time on 3.5 x 2 inch sheets. They are going to "gang" (step & repeat) multiple images of the card on one press sheet.
Typically, I would know in advance the press sheet size that is going to be used and the necessary space for gripper and press sheet margins. I would set up the software page to the size of the press sheet and arrange multiple instances of the card in that space. I would draw my own trim marks for each card in the array. If the sheet size is such that it will result in alot of paper just going in the waste bin, I may design some other piece in the otherwise unused area (a bookmark or hangtag, for example) and thereby get an "almost free" second document out of the press run. If the cards is designed to be printed on both sides, I will often arrange the page to accommodate "work and turn" printing, wherein both sides of the card gets printing on one side of the sheet, the sheets are simply flopped over and run through the press again. That avoids the need for a second press setup.
But since everybody and his third cousin's nephew is now a "designer," many printing houses have set up "click & drag" printing solutions on the web. Such solutions make it "quick & easy" (not necessarily cheaper) for the neophyte and "idiot proof" for the printer by removing the above-described flexibility and designing "one size fits all" workflows. That's what you're chasing with the Vistaprint vendor.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
I'm planning to (when this comes to an end), order business cards, brief paper and envelopes on Vistaprint (Dutch site). The preferred size is 1. 90mm x 52mm (complete document) or 2. 87mm x 49mm (cut off).
What is the difference between these two sizes? I suppose this has something to do with the bleeding, but what?
In the Vistaprint .ai template for design-your-own business cards I just downloaded to see what you're talking about, they have the artboard set to accommodate a design with bleed. You don't have to design bleeding elements, but the space is there if you do.
The AI Artboard (page) is 90 x 52 mm. Think of that as your bleed area. If there are elements in your design that you want to "print to the edge" of the finished card, draw them all the way to the edges of the Artboard. The printer is, in effect, telling you that if you do that, then you will be providing enough "extra" artwork to accommodate the inherent variances in the printing/triming process.
The (grossly overthick) 87 x 49mm red rectangle is the trim. So it effectively is the "trim marks". It represents the final card after it is trimmed down to final size. That's the size your cards will be when delivered. That roughly coresponds to the 3.5 x 2 inch dimensions that are considered the norm in the US. I don't know about what's the convention in Europe, but assuming it is the same as in the US, that's the size you want the cards to be. Business cards that are even slightly oversized usually end up in the trash can because they often don't fit pockets in card-carriers or plastic sleeves.
The (grossly overthick) blue rectangle is the so-called "safe area". That's nothing more than a suggested "safe design margin" between your artwork and the trim. The idea is that you are supposed to keep any elements of the design that you don't want to risk getting "too close" to the edges of the final piece--or even getting chopped off by the trim--within that rectangle. Magazines and newspapers are also fond of providing "safe area" in their add space specs. I ignore them. I know what kind of visual "margins" I want in my designs and I know when I am risking getting too close to the trim. But an amateur designer may think it brilliant to "make a title as big as possible" and actually crowd text almost right up against the trim (in other words, poor design). Then he gets upset when the normal variance in the printing/trimming process causes the text to actually get cut on some of the finished pieces. By providing that rectangle, the printer is telling you "Don't blame us if some of your artwork is too close to the trimmed edge if you place that artwork beyond this rectangle."
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
3.1. I made a new document in Illustrator CS5, with the 'complete document' measurements 90mm x 52mm (300DPI, CMYK). Do I need to input bleeding before I push ok?
3.2. I made a new document in Illustrator CS5, with the 'cut off document' measurements 87mm x 49mm (300DPI, CMYK). Do I need to input bleeding before I push ok?
In the "idiot proof" template that Vistaprint has provided, they are treating the Artboard size as the bleed, and the red rectangle as the trim. So there is no need for you to include trim or bleed marks in your design.
Just set up your AI document exactly as the template that Vistaprint provided. Better, actually use their document file and paste your artwork into it on the Layer named "Your Design". When arranging your artwork, leave the (poorly named) "Guides" Layer visible, but locked. Make any art elements (background fills, etc.) that you want to "print to the edge" of the finished card extend all the way to the Artboard edge. Keep all other design elements within the "safe margin" blue rectangle.
All this is explained, by the way, in the See Accepted File Types link on the Vistaprint site.
When done, delete the Layer named "Gudies." Deliver the file to the printer. I would not deliver the .ai file; I would deliver a PDF. If you insist on delivering as an .ai file, convert all text to paths (a practice I despise). If you deliver as PDF, simply choose File>Save A Copy... in Illustrator. In the resulting dialog, select Adobe PDF as the file type. In the next dialog, leave the top menu set to Illustrator Defaults, but set the compatibility popup to Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3). That should be fine.

Alt-text in Business Card

Hello,
while watching a users business card I find it interesting to see from which country he/she comes from.
But as I don't remember all the flags of the world this information is hidden sometimes.
I'm wondering whether it would be possible to add an 'alt=' text to the img tag with the name of the country.
Regards
J.i.M
P.S.: Maybe also a link to Eddy's SDN world map...

Hi Eddy,
thanks for the remark. As I'm not a html-expert I guess the BC-card developers know what you're talking about
But what do you think about the suggestion itself (alternative text on flag)?

HT5172 My new Macbook Pro doesn't recognize my card reader (with a CF card inserted).

My new Macbook Pro doesn't recognize my USB card reader with a CF card inserted. It works fine on my old Macbook Pro.
Do I need a new card reader? USB 3 perhaps?
I would appreciate any input that you may have. Thank you.

Hi, closereaching. Instead of spending 12 hours reinstalling your operating system and getting everything back up to date again, which probably won't accomplish anything, why not buy a $10 USB card reader for your Casio's SD card? Or (more expensive, but a much more elegant solution), an ExpressCard SD card reader that can stay in your computer all the time?

IPhoto 9.5 won't recognize USB card reader.

I loaded Mavericks this week with iPhoto 9.5. But now iPhoto will not read a card reader and gives me a message that the card reader was ejected improperly. When I force quit iPhoto and reopen, it won't open the card reader so I can import pictures. I have tried several times to get it to read the card reader. Any ideas?
Nevermind, I found someone else's reply about Image Capture. That worked!

iPhoto 9.5 immediately tries to "upgrade" my library using the upgrader.
iPhoto 9.5 asks you to run the upgrader to prepare the library for 9.5. It then will update the library to its format.
You need to do the following:
1 - go to your Applications/Utilities folder and double click on the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application.
2 - select Choose Library, navigate to your iPhoto library, select it and let the upgrader do its thing.
3 - launch iPhoto 9.5 to open and finish the conversion of the library.

MacBook Pro now does not recognize USB card reader

My computer recently stopped recognizing my usb card reader. The usb port works fine with my iphone and ipod. The card reader works when plugged into a windows based machine. The problem is not related to OS 10.6 because I had the issue prior to upgrade. I must of updated something software related that is causing the problem. Anyone have any ideas?

My computer recently stopped recognizing my usb card reader.
We'll need to know exactly what you mean by this. Plug in the reader, without a card in it. Go to Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info and click on USB in the left column of System Profiler. Do you see *Mass Storage Device* listed under one of the USB port entries in the right part of the window? If so, the reader is recognized. If not, it really isn't. In that case, reset the SMC in your MBP:

Then test again and post back with results.

Bridge in CS5 does not recognize card reader

Help! Suddenly, my Bridge in Photoshop CS5 does not recognize my card reader. I have a HP Pavilion Elite HPE that has the card readers (for 15 different cards) built into it and all of a sudden it will not recognize the card reader drive. I have uninstalled CS5 and re-installed it thinking that if the path had been broken that it would be reestablished by the reinstallation, but that did not happen. I have checked the device manager on my HP and it tells tme that this drive is working correctly, but however, it is not evidently working correctly. Has anyone else had this happen to them and if so, what was the solution? I have an e-mail to HP for tech support, but have not heard from them as of yet. Thank you in advance for your input.

You want to at least choose the 1st, reset preferences.
Purging the cache can solve some problems, it will be rebuilt as you visit each folder.
Resetting Workspaces is probably not necessary unless you have display problems.
To view the files in Win. Exp. you have to open then navigate to the device where the card is being read.
If you can view the card in W Exp then the card works, and you can get photos in Bridge with File/get photos from camera.
If you do not get the auto load window when you stick the card in you will have to look at the autoload optons in the Op. Sys. Look in Help file for info. on where to look.

Magnetic card reader and java

hi all
I am doing a project in java in which i need to read the magnetic card reader in my program.so please tell me how to read the text ,that the card reads, in java.Basically my project is to develop an attendence system in java that will use ATM card of the person.I need to read the string that the reader reads, in java.Please help me how to do this.Thanks in eadvanc

Alright,let me give you an idea of what stratergies which we can follow with regards to your requirement assuming that the magenetic card contains just a stream of information.
1).If you are using Magnectic card Over Serial / LPT ports,Try to use Java Communication Api.
write a class using it which pools all the available initiated ports continuosly.If you find ready data avalable with regards to that device connect to that port & then fetch the data and then throgh an event with regards to that data obtained now parse the data accordingly and then use for your business means.

http://java.sun.com/developer/Books/javaprogramming/cookbook/11.pdf
the above links would guide you through in acheiving the stated solution.
2). If the stated Magenetic Card or Specified device already has a Driver in place and set of native methods(in low level languages) in place.all you ought to do is to make use of JNI and write a native Linking library using JNI specification which can make use of those native methods and export them to java and use them accordingly.

My Mac Pro will read thumb-drive but not CF card reader

Can someone help me resolve this problem?
I just erased everything off my Mac Pro and reconfigured everything (as new). I installed all my programs, primarily Aperture3 and Photoshop CS5
(using Leopard).
I had NO problem uploaded some photos into Aperture3 from a thumb drive using the USB port, BUT,
when I tried to upload photos from my card reader the MacPro does not recognize the card reader using the same USB port.
I figured the problem was a bad card reader, so I tested it on my PC and it recognized the card reader and uploaded all the photos.
Also, the card reader's green light turns on when attached to the MacPro, as if it is working and connected but it does not register in Finder or desktop to indicate that the card reader is installed.
I even tried to upload directly from my Canon 7D and it also did NOT recognize the camera.
Why would the MacPro recognize the thumb drive on the same USB port and not the card reader or the camera?
Please help!

Hp officejet pro 8600 multi-card reader problem

Have officejet 8600 printer/fax with multi-card reader. All worked fine when wired to Apple computer before. Went wireless last week...set up router etc. All worked fine till I tried to load an sd camera card in the printer like i had done many times before. Doesn't recognize the multi-drive...all lights start to flash..tells me i need to turn printer off/on to continue....NEVER does recognize the card reader!...
I remember there was an update from Apple that had to do with printer drivers on Oct.15th....could that be the problem or do I need to set something else because of the wireless setup?
The printer works fine otherwise....it does recognize the wireless connection for straight printing. I haven't tried the fax part yet.

Hi lincon50
I understand the memory card isn't being recognized since the wireless setup and the apple update.
Please take a look at the post from pcwizard and give it a try.

Why does Sony multi-card reader show up now as a RealTek product?

I've had a Sony MRW62E/T1/181 card reader for several years. It worked fine until recently. When I plugged in the USB cord that came with it into my XP Pro SP3 computer, I got a message asking me to install a RealTek driver. To the best of my knowledge, there are no RealTek products on my PC. I've tried rebooting and deleting entries in the Device Manager. No luck. I can't get the PC to recognize the card reader, much less retrieve photos from my SanDisk Ultra III 8GB SDHC camera card I've always used. Even stranger, I can use the card reader just fine if I plug it into the Windows 7 system at work. Yes, I have the Sony drive letter software installed. I've also tried different USB ports on my PC. Tips?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Now if it’s a driver issue.
Most card readers and other USB Storage devices (ebook readers, cameras, camcorders, etc), use generic USB Win drivers.
Have you try to uninstall only the drivers of the USB Mass Storage Device?
Here is an example how to uninstall the Reader Digital Book USB drivers in the Win SO. It’s the same even for other Storage devices.

Then reboot PC and connect the card reader.
